Description : LC054 An 1877 newspaper letter to the editor of the New Bedford Standard describes how the owner of the land "has clandestinely desecrated the Little Burying Ground by removing the gravestones, ploughing up and planting corn, not leaving a vestage of a grave or stone to mark the repose of the dead." The 2018 "Remember Me" project and book has indentified the perpetrator as Edward Howland, "Little Compton's last Quaker." The map location is approximate.
